The Yogi Diet | Ayurvedic Cooking Workshop

The Yogi Diet | Ayurvedic Cooking Workshop
Sunday March 26, 2-6pm

In this workshop we will explore traditional Ayurveda as a foundation for vegetarian cooking, and recommendations for yoga practitioners for optimum health and digestion. This class will also serve as an Introduction to Ayurveda. This is a hands-on cooking class — participation encouraged! A well-balanced, simple yogi-style meal will be created and shared together. You don’t have to practice yoga to benefit from this class!

Dh Singhasuri began her studies in nutrition with a ten-year apprenticeship with a Kushi Institute Macrobiotic Teacher and graduated as a Macrobiotic Counselor. During this time  she explored growing food in the mountains of New Hampshire, foraging in the wild, and cooking for hundreds of people seeking healing. Singhasuri studied Ayurveda while attending her first of many residencies at the Kripalu Institute in the Berkshires. She continued her academic and lifestyle interest in Ayurveda and Indian cooking while studying yoga asana and philosophy in India. As a yoga practitioner and a yoga teacher, maintaining an understanding of this science has been paramount to sustaining her yoga, meditation and pranayama practices with steadiness and ease for over 30 years.
Singhasuri’s love of the natural world sparked interest in Environmental Science while attending Naropa University for her undergraduate studies. This time learning about deep ecology, eco-psychology, sustainable living, organic gardening and wildcrafting led her to apprentice as an herbalist with Rosemary Gladstar in the mountains of Vermont. Singhasuri’s approach to health and healing, plant-based medicine and vegetarian/whole food cooking is an expression of living in harmony on this incredible planet. She strives to maintain equanimity and to stay open to the wisdom of ancient traditions and all growing things.
